Flats are not really my bag but I do admire your painting skills. Adding such depth to a 2D subject is really impressive. I doff my hat to you, sir.

Thanks for sharing it with us,
Billy

Ok Roger ..I am bowing as I type ...lovely work on this , the background is very effective as well ..you are the tops on flats IMO

Really like the boots and armour (What colours are you using ..I presume its still all oils as you like the blending with these ?)

Thanks for sharing

[billyturnip]

Thanks very much everyone.

Kev, the armour and boots were painted using Lamp Black & Titanium White, that's all..... I think. Some others might've been put on in the heat of the moment but I can't remember.

That's Charleroi in the background by the way.

Roger.
